Abstract:
The disclosed embodiments provide a system that configures a graphics-processing unit (GPU) in a computer system. During operation, the system predicts an incoming workload to the GPU. Next, the system identifies an operational floor for the GPU based on the incoming workload. Finally, the system uses the operational floor to configure the subsequent execution of the GPU, wherein the operational floor facilitates processing of the incoming workload by the GPU.
